    Tires?

    Seems that I waited perhaps too long and now am unable to find the Bridgestones. Discount tire has the rears but not the fronts Tire Rack has nothing. My Shelby’s have Michelin’s Cup 2’s and they are fantastic. Michelin makes the rears in 345/35R19 but the only front is 245/35R18. Buy the...

    Anyone know this Silver GT??

    I'd recommend he find a 2006 maybe with a few more miles. The Ford GT looks great in any color but Silver is my least favorite.

    Monaco

    I think Vettel has had an enormous about of good luck over the past 4 seasons but now finally his luck has run out. It's a pity Ferrari still can't provide Alonso with a competitive car

    FORD GT Black body with silver stripes

    That sounds awfully low. Personally it is my favorite color combination for a lot of reasons one of which is that no matter what color GT you ordered the interior was black and silver. Ditto for the visible chassis through the hatch, plus the wheels and tires. So to my eye the other colors...

    GT - Ten Years Young

    Very few would want a Ford GT as an only car but I have lots of other cars (Bentley Continental GT, Porsche GT3, BMW M3, Mercedes AMG etc.) and if I had to go down to only one car it would be the GTR.

    GT - Ten Years Young

    I also own both, my GTR is a 2014 replacing my 2009. If I had to part with one it would be the GTR. If I could only own one car it would be the GTR.

    helmet advice

    Make sure it fits well and spend the extra money for a carbon fiber model. Helmets protect your most important asset, CF is lighter, stronger and looks so cool :-)

    Got GT out of storage but the speedo quit

    Battery was on a trickle charger and car fired up immediately but worth checking. Thanks

    Got GT out of storage but the speedo quit

    Similar story for me today. Took the GT out of heated storage today and the tach is dead, guess my awesome luck with this car just ran out. Owned it now 8 years and this will be the first repair it needs. Hard to bitch about that!

    Cool Banner - Monterey

    Nice find. thanks! BTW I recently returned from the Monterey Historics where I saw pretty much everything automotive on the road including hundreds of Ferraris, dozens and dozens of Lambos and even a couple of Bugatti Veyrons but not a single Ford GT. Talk about exclusivity :-)
